All  young adults  deserve the chance to dream.

OAI provides safe housing and a helping hand to former fosters so that they too have the same chance to dream and plan their future.

​

Young adults aging out of the foster care system are more likely than those in the general population to: drop out of high school, not complete a higher education or trade school, become addicted to drugs or alcohol, be unemployed, be incarcerated, be homeless, or be a parent at an early age and repeat the cycle of foster care. Many of the kids that age out of the foster system suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), much like many of our soldiers who have been in a combat situation. 

Operation: Achieve Independence, Inc. (OAI)

OAI is a Texas based 501(c)(3) non profit corporation with a desire to equip the young adults that age out of the foster care with the knowledge and skills needed to become independent assets to our society.

Purpose/Mission

To equip those aging out of the foster care system with the knowledge and skills needed to become independent citizens and assets to our society.This Program will offer: safe housing, life skills training, along with emotional, mental, physical and spiritual support. Residents will receive help and guidance on applying for college or trade school by employees and volunteers that exemplify Christ-like love.
